I wonder if the liquor store by me sells Old Style.

they did just win the wildcard "series"......

Congrats to the Cubbies, fans too

Thanks, but we're just getting started. Pirates played a good game but with Jake out their it was an inevitable W for the Cubs.

Like I said the winner of this game wins the World Series.

Geez you would think they were were in Morgantown. Where are the burning couches?

Cubs vs Royals would be a good WS. The tv ratings would sky rocket

 

[thedddd]

To be honest I think the Cubs in general would bring in high ratings due to the history.

 

[Diamondeye]

Looks like the better team is moving on

Debatable.

With Arrieta starting, sure, but it's not a one pitcher sport.

That would be a good matchup.

Cubs or Mets against the Blue Jays would probably be the best for ratings, though.

Just happy the Cubs bullpen wasn't needed tonight.

I was thinking the same thing after I posted earlier

Their BP couldnt be as bad as Detroits

That's almost embarrassing, and adds further understanding to why Bartman had to go under the equivalent of witness protection.

Cubs fans are nuts.

It's not terrible but they don't know what a 1-2-3 inning is

 

[Clayton]

Debatable.

I was trying to jinx them to be honest

 

[Mondo Jay]

Arrieta is fucking amazing.

Sick, sick shit.

If only they had another guy that has proven himself on the big stage....

Wait, just checked their roster....they have a dude named Lester. Not bad.

They can match anyone's 1-2 punch out there.

I will say, depending on how the young arms respond...the Mets may have a 1-2-3 that could be tough to beat.

I got the right amount of runs, hits, and errors... just distributed wrong.
